Supporting people to stand up after the devastating flood
These days, Mr. Tran Chu Nghia (45 years old), in Phu Huu village, Hoa Thinh commune, is busy cleaning up his belongings to his new house that still smells of plaster. For Mr. Nghia, this is the first spring his family has moved in to live in a house of gratitude built after the flood.
Looking at the bright red tiled roof and shiny painted walls, few people would think that just a few months ago, his family was empty-handed when the old house was completely swept away by the flood.
Recalling the "great flood", Mr. Nghia is still in shock. The historic heavy rain at the end of 2025 submerged everything, turning the house into rubble in an instant. Luckily saving his life, but when the water receded, in front of the desolate vacant land, he did not dare to dream of a new house.
After that, the Quang Trung Campaign was launched by Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh, determined to help people have new houses before Tet.
The image of soldiers marching back through mud, erecting pillars, tilting roofs, and machinery bustling day and night has become an unforgettable memory. After only 45 days of "overcoming sun and winning rain", the dream house has appeared in the poor village.
From the support of about 300 million VND from the State and philanthropists, Mr. Nghia built an additional kitchen and auxiliary works. "The soldiers work day and night. They are very enthusiastic, sometimes even working overtime at night," he said emotionally.
In Yang Mao commune, Mr. Sung A Chinh (38 years old) is also completing a 65m2 house for a family of 7 people. From 170 million VND in support, he borrowed more to build a more spacious house.
The new house was completed right in the spring, Tet came and started for a new year. Having a new roof, I believe my family's life will be more stable and developed than before," Mr. Chinh expressed.
Many activities to care for people
Secretary of the Party Committee of Hoa Thinh commune Phuong Van Lanh said that with a spirit of urgency and determination, the housing reconstruction work for people has achieved positive results, ensuring 100% progress.
117 houses to be newly built have been completed and handed over to people. For 54 heavily damaged houses that need repair, the locality has completed repairs and fully accepted them. At the same time, 137 slightly damaged houses have also been repaired, ensuring people have stable accommodation.
After the end of the Quang Trung Campaign, the commune Party Committee and government continued to implement many activities to care for spiritual life so that people could enjoy spring and celebrate Tet such as: "Loving Pho", "Mother's Wish", "Spring Solidarity - Tet imbued with military-civilian affection", art night celebrating the Party and Spring, volleyball tournament, poetry-music night...
In Son Hoa commune, Mr. Nguyen Duy Tinh - Vice Chairman of the Commune People's Committee - said that implementing the Quang Trung Campaign launched by the Prime Minister, the locality has completed the construction of 38 new houses before December 31, 2025.
Households have moved in to live stably, ready to welcome Binh Ngo Tet 2026. Along with that, the commune coordinates to receive and allocate support from philanthropists, prioritizing policy families, poor and near-poor households, lonely elderly people and households affected by floods; Tet gifts are given promptly, creating a joyful atmosphere among the people.
In Yang Mao commune, Vice Chairman of the Commune People's Committee Nguyen Van Tam said that the locality proactively allocates new land funds for households affected by landslides, which cannot be built on old land.
The commune mobilized to transfer a land plot worth 700 million VND to arrange accommodation for 6 households in Ea Han village. From the support of philanthropists and the local budget, land purchase and housing construction are being urgently implemented; many basic projects are completed, striving for households to soon stabilize before Tet.
